Jams Randi exposed the techniques used by Faith Healers

[paulspydar]

whats with the weird text? is it writing in tongues or something?

[thecubanism]

Ignorant monkeys in suits.

[ricgarrett7]

there are many counterfeit ministers and the bible tells us that.I know there are honest men and women in the ministry as I know a few good ones personally.If there are counterfeit ones there must be real ones.just like real and phony anything.correct?

[Dhesyca]

I still think that the most effective religious beliefs are one that encourage people to improve themselves, be kind to others, and give themselves the courage to stand up for their own moral code (not necessarily telling them what their moral code should be). An' ye harm none, Do what ye Will.

[wow1022]

and yet peter popoff continues... just saw an infomercial... GET THIS SHIT OFF THE AIR IT MAKES RELIGION LOOK TERRIBLE

[Linkdouble0zero]

@ilililhy1 bible is a very common reason many people actually LOSE their faith. Upon learning its true contents it's hard not to.

[ilililhy1]

@Linkdouble0zero You just remember this one thing ,my friend,Jesus Loves you and Jesus died for you on a cross and shed His own Blood for your sins and mine.so that we would not have to pay our sin debt with our own soul,Jesus paid the sin debt for us.Now that, is real love.Jesus laid down his life for us.

[Linkdouble0zero]

@ilililhy1 I don't wish to be antagonistic, but would like to point out that actually sitting down and reading the

[THEONLYBIODUDE]

i know a maritial art move that knock people out froma simple  touch to the jaw or to the forehead its quet simple and religion is a hoax stick to science and you will get somewhere

[ilililhy1]

I will remember this video ,the next time Jesus does a Miracle for me or someone I know., Jesus still does Miracles. O, one more thing,Jesus could not do,many Mighty Miracles in his own home town,because of the people`s unbelief . Do you know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour? have you ever read or studied ,The Holy Bible,King James Version?

[2eelShmeal]

James Randi, we love your crazy ass. How many motherfuckers have you pimp-smacked? Too many. Thanks Randi. The best was Kung-Fu-Bowl-Haircut-Man...

[fegu]

It starts at 3:45 if anyone actually wants to watch what the title of this video says it's about.

[LackadaisicalE]

PEOPLE people..you guys seem to forget that this is all part of evolution. There are multiple ways the "tail" of humanity are slowly disappearing, just like there are multiple ways new "heads" of pioneering sub cultures being created all the time.

When you watch Jerry Springer or hear about Republicans practising abstinence, be thankful, dont whine about it. It's just nature doing its thing :)

[Debbie321lopez]

Was he alway's 80?

[Lymmar]

At one of the last Church type things I attended ( '96 I think ) an evangelist made me pass out. I wasn't worked up into a frenzy or anything, as I recall I was actually somewhat bored. I went up and dude barely touches the side of my jaw and I fell over. I still have no explanation for what he did, but I'm going to figure out what trick he used one of these days.

[funny20171]

BLASPHEMY!!!!

[Blogrich55]

Great job James! Sadly there are those who will judge all Christianity by this phoney miscreants. BTW U F Grant's Zenith mind reading act is one that does the same thing Grant and Poptart do but without the mechanical devices. It can be found in the Encyclopedia of Mentalism Volume #1.

I look forward to reading Jame's book. We must never forget Andy Kaufman went to a psychic surgeon. It was instrumental in his dying.

[gl3110]

haha, 5:38 "gods gonna touch that sister of yours"..how creepy and sexual did that sound?

[devilrobbie25]

@gl3110 ahhhhahahahaah

[samborlon]

PRAISE THE LORD!!!!

[funny20171]

BOGUS BULLSHIT!!!

[funny20171]

BOGUS BULLSHIT!!!

[euroman32589]

please stop warning me at every intro..its fuckin annoying.

[panterasux22]

@yugi15able you sir are a dolt

[theanvilcracks]

@yugi15able OR we could just send your illiterate ass back to school...

[euroman32589]

popoff.."that burns the devil up"...lol

[MrAndyroo999]

In actual fact SPIRITUAL healing does work its just that you need to take your medication or have operations if you need them as well as have healing. There needs to be a mixture of all three youd be stupid to rely on healing alone as this has nothing to do with healing the physical body as such its the spirit. You do feel a lot better after healing Ive had my back cured of pain and other symptoms but I wouldnt rely on it. Ive had spirits poke my cheek and touch my hand which is comforting.

[Turha101]

@MrAndyroo999

So people get well from having the right medical treatment.

People get well from having the right medical treatment, AND having somekind of spiritual healing?

People do not get well from having only spiritual healing?

Seems to me that one of these are not needed.

You would be amazed how much a placebo effect can do, which is what i would call spritual healing to be all about.

[brtherjohn]

Tom Bergeron at 03:45! Obviously many years before Dancing with the Stars.

[professorhoodoo]

James randi's buddy Jose Alvarez is headed back to jail as a FRAUD!!!!!

[lasoogneypubes]

RAB RAP JEEZUSS!!

[TadRaunch]

Video starts at 3:45

[touchtoomuch1000]

This is a young Tom Bergeron.

[DuoRepublic]

I think both those guys; found good excuse to face cross someone in the face! lol

[umetnica82]

Why dislikes?

[somethingdiffereable]

The time has come to move on from religious and supersticious gooble-gook!

[KapStuf]

The sound of Randi's voice can heal all gullibility, all stupidity, all wishful thinking. But only if your mind is open to His wisdom.

[crpleprone91]

da fuck language is in the beginning and throughout the video...cue the "ur an ignorant american" remarks

[wutsgoodnukka]

i pray one day i can be in the face of a healer and when they do that head slap i can look at them laugh and leave

[wutsgoodnukka]

randi's beard can heal anything

[NiangoChan]

CAN YOU STOP PAUSING THE GODDAMN VIDEO

[ghossler]

slap that bitch xD oh wait.. sry i mean heal her !

[arnymgarny]

so many trolls

[alracgabu]

religion is a disease made to undermine human strenght. humilliation fraud and decieving are part of this web of lies. they'll end up draining you and running away.

[Stairc]

It's pretty simple. Faith healers are claiming they can produce tangible results. If they can't, they're taking peoples' money and hope for nothing. This is fraud. The fact it's religious is immaterial.

[Kaijisss]

3:42 for the thing promised by the title

[NiangoChan]

@Kaijisss thank you

[nataliacanul]

Long Live the Randi!

[qwer4o]

You're so gullible McFLY!!!

[nappydrew]

If you're stupid enough to believe in faith healing than I guess Darwin was right, you are the weakest link.....GOODBYE!

[MrGoodNKinky]

Freedom of religion was NEVER meant to be a license to Decieve!

All Faith healers should be forced to PROVE they can heal or go to jail for Fraud!

No well it is FAITH!

No well you must BELIEVE!

Either produce REAL results in a REAL hospital with REAL doctors or Go to Jail for Fraud!

[dgkm83]

@MrGoodNKinky agreed!

[somethingdiffereable]

@MrGoodNKinky I've never seen any supernatural or religious claims the weren't fake!

[somethingdiffereable]

@MrGoodNKinky (typo) I meant to say that weren't fake!

[chibraxial]

@MrGoodNKinky

By definition, it isn't, by facts (applied to human reality) , yes, it is.

[xxakli]

@MrGoodNKinky actually they "claim" that God is doing the healing, so . . .

[MrGoodNKinky]

@xxakli

Claims without Proof are meaningless.

I can claim to be a Billionaire, or a Celebrity, or a male super model however without Proof the claim means nothing.

Why does religion get a free pass at wild claims without anything to support them?

[simw7]

idk why humans are total gullible damnnn

[chibraxial]

@simw7

Humans are raised with ideals, illusions, since their childhood : fairy tales, miracles.. when they grow up, Reality is too hard on them so they prefer to stay in their little bubles of delusions.

We are scared by death, that is all.

And this fear comes from our genes that sole goal is to propagate and "last" without any regard for the "human mind" and fears and desires.

Reality doesn't love us, reality doesn't give a flying f**** about us and our miserable existence.

[Vikramthewhite]

@simw7 Coz we are creatures looking for answers..

[icemachine79]

@Vikramthewhite ...to the wrong questions.

[0Anesthetic4u]

@simw7 Appearantly there is a dog that learned to type.

[topperheartramada]

@simw7 we are scared, stupid, and insecure.

[thelonelychemist]

@simw7

failed to evolved enough

[simw7]

@thelonelychemist i'm sure you were joking when you said they failed to evolve lol cuz in reality if they did fail to evolve, they'd most likely be dead lol haha

[civilizedsince1c]

Thank you very much!! People wake Up!!

[ethioreview]

Faith healers perform what appear to look like awesome miracles of God before an audience of thousands of faithful in auditoriums. But, like any stage magic show, many of these stunts are simply clever illusions or show business type tricks.

god save ethiopia

[infinightsky]

@ethioreview then again jesus did say we could heal anyone if we ask god.

[tarnicles]

@infinightsky I wonder why men came up with MODERN,SCIENTIFIC MEDICINE that actually works...guess your 'God' wasn't good enough. Try praying the plague or even tuberculosis away. We got brilliant cures for these diseases the day we stopped praying and actually set our minds to science.

P.S. don't you think the hapless thousands who died agonizingly of the plague would have prayed. What monster would deny the prayers of old people and children dying in a most horrific manner?
